I've searched and can't seem to find how the level pot's value works with the EQ.
I want to mod my Boss HM2's tone at the High. At the moment the mids and highs are tied together with one 10kB tone pot.
They look like fixed bands like you would find in a regular EQ pedal, does that mean it gives +/-dB gain?
Was looking at splitting up the two with a concentric 100kB pot from either small bear or a cheap MT2 donor pedal.

Another thing i noticed with the pots, they are all parallel, and lowering it's original resistance.
right now the HM2 has two 10kB pots (5kB), with a 100kB dual pot, it's about 8K
